Uplink power control in a wireless device
A wireless device receives a media access control (MAC) activation command indicating activation of a plurality of physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) secondary cell. The wireless device receives, on a secondary cell in the plurality of cells, downlink control information comprising a PUCCH transmit power control (TPC) command. The wireless device calculates, a transmit power of the secondary PUCCH, employing the PUCCH TPC command only if the secondary PUCCH group comprises the secondary cell. The wireless device transmits uplink signals on the secondary PUCCH with the transmit power.
1. A method comprising:
receiving, by a wireless device from a base station, at least one message comprising configuration parameters of a plurality of cells grouped into a plurality of physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) groups comprising:
a primary PUCCH group comprising a primary cell with a primary PUCCH transmitted to the base station; and
a secondary PUCCH group comprising a PUCCH secondary cell with a secondary PUCCH transmitted to the base station;
receiving a media access control (MAC) activation command indicating activation of the PUCCH secondary cell;
receiving, for a cell in the plurality of cells, downlink control information comprising a PUCCH transmit power control (TPC) command and scheduling information for the cell, wherein the downlink control information does not have either a downlink control information format 3 or a downlink control information format 3 A;
determining whether the cell is the primary cell or the PUCCH secondary cell;
based on the determining, calculating a transmit power, for one of the primary PUCCH and the secondary PUCCH, employing the PUCCH TPC command; and
transmitting uplink signals on the one of the primary PUCCH and the secondary PUCCH with the transmit power.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the downlink control information is received in a wireless device specific search space of a physical downlink control channel of the PUCCH secondary cell.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one message further comprises:
one or more first PUCCH information elements (IEs) indicating one or more PUCCH formats of the secondary PUCCH; and
one or more second PUCCH power control IEs indicating a power parameter value for at least one of the one or more PUCCH formats;
wherein the calculating the transmit power further employs the one or more second PUCCH power control IEs.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least one message further comprises a pathloss reference parameter indicating a pathloss reference cell of the PUCCH secondary cell.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the uplink signals comprise channel state information.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving, on a common search space of the primary cell, a second PUCCH TPC command for the secondary PUCCH.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein:
the calculating calculates the transmit power, for the primary PUCCH, employing the PUCCH TPC command; and
the transmitting transmits the uplink signals on the primary PUCCH with the transmit power.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein cross-carrier scheduling across the primary PUCCH group and the secondary PUCCH group is not allowed.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the downlink control information has one of downlink control information formats 1 A, 1 B, 1 D, 1 , 2 A, 2 B, 2 C, 2 D, or 2 .
10. A method comprising:
receiving, by a wireless device from a base station, at least one message comprising configuration parameters of a plurality of cells grouped into a plurality of physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) groups comprising:
a primary PUCCH group comprising a primary cell with a primary PUCCH transmitted to the base station; and
a secondary PUCCH group comprising a PUCCH secondary cell with a secondary PUCCH transmitted to the base station;
receiving, for a cell in the plurality of cells, downlink control information comprising a PUCCH transmit power control (TPC) command and scheduling information for the cell, wherein the downlink control information does not have either a downlink control information format 3 or a downlink control information format 3 A;
determining the cell is the PUCCH secondary cell and not the primary cell;
based on the determining, calculating a transmit power, of the secondary PUCCH, employing the PUCCH TPC command; and
transmitting uplink signals on the secondary PUCCH with the transmit power.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the downlink control information is received in a wireless device specific search space of a physical downlink control channel of the PUCCH secondary cell.
12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the at least one message further comprises:
one or more first PUCCH information elements (IEs) indicating one or more PUCCH formats of the secondary PUCCH; and
one or more second PUCCH power control IEs indicating a power parameter value for at least one of the one or more PUCCH formats;
wherein the calculating the transmit power further employs the one or more second PUCCH power control IEs.
13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the at least one message further comprises a pathloss reference parameter indicating a pathloss reference cell for the PUCCH secondary cell.
14. The method of claim 10 , wherein the uplink signals comprise channel state information.
15. The method of claim 10 , further comprising receiving a second PUCCH TPC command for the second PUCCH on a common search space of the primary cell.
16. The method of claim 10 , wherein cross-carrier scheduling across the primary PUCCH group and the secondary PUCCH group is not allowed.
17. The method of claim 10 , wherein the downlink control information has one of downlink control information formats 1 A, 1 B, 1 D, 1 , 2 A, 2 B, 2 C, 2 D, or 2 .
